He was on the sidewalk in front of Central Park. It's titled "mother and son". I love this piece and would really like to find him but there's absolutely nothing on the internet... until I found this blog. <br /><br />I live in Oregon. Any suggestions? <br /><br />Thanks, pamelaMissMiauxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13826955938508345295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-71375579904380970462008-11-03T09:55:00.000-05:002008-11-03T09:55:00.000-05:00Very curious.Is the painting small and painted in ...Very curious.<BR/>Is the painting small and painted in bright flat colors?<BR/>If so, I may have seen this guy peddling his work in the subway.Counterlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345956180434795401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-64170301579443896012008-11-03T08:45:00.000-05:002008-11-03T08:45:00.000-05:00Some years ago, I won a signed and numbered print ...Some years ago, I won a signed and numbered print named "Two Hunters" at a silent auction. I was the only bidder, so I got it for $40. It's a picture of two black(?) men on horseback, in hunting pinks, waiting to begin a fox hunt. There are several hunting dogs in the lower part of the picture. The subjects are elongated, in the style of Modigliani.<BR/><BR/>I believe Swindell is black, for on the back of the picture, it says he drew his influence from the Harlem Renaissance.<BR/><BR/>The picture intrigued me, because of the subject, which seemed an odd choice for a black artist (Virginia fox hunting?) and just because I liked it.June Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723016934182800437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-5620163111753497632008-11-03T08:24:00.000-05:002008-11-03T08:24:00.000-05:00The name is familiar, but I can't quite place it.W...The name is familiar, but I can't quite place it.<BR/>Why do you ask?Counterlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345956180434795401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-55039261477419526052008-11-03T00:53:00.000-05:002008-11-03T00:53:00.000-05:00I wish I could be there, Counterlight.
